Digital Terrain Analysis in Soil Science and Geology provides GIS scientists, soil scientists, geologists, geoscientists, geomorphologists, and geographers with an integrated view of the theory, principles, and methods of digital terrain modeling in the context of multi-scale problems of soil science and geology.Digital Terrain Analysis in Soil Science and Geology, based on the author's original interdisciplinary research, is divided into three parts. The first part represents the state-of-the-art in the field outlining mathematical methods used in digital terrain modeling. The second part looks at methods for analysis, modeling, and mapping of spatial distribution of soil properties using digital terrain analysis. The third part considers techniques for recognition, analysis, and interpretation of topographically expressed geological features.This book features:An integrated, first-hand view of the theory, methods, and application of digital terrain analysis by a single author.Strong mathematical theory underlying digital terrain analysis, providing a basis for reproducibility and correctness of its application in any region of the world. Examples at a wide range of spatial scales.
